The company, which has been headquartered in Lubbock, Texas since 1951, now operates three locations in Texas, Arizona, and Mississippi. 

Located just eight miles from Memphis International Airport and 14 miles from the International Port of Memphis, the new Southaven facility allows Simflo to expedite product delivery and improve supply chain efficiency to better serve its growing customer base in eastern and southern US markets.

Southaven offers the company’s full line of high-quality vertical and submersible turbine pumps, as well as other parts and accessories, each engineered and customized to meet its customers’ specific application needs. Approximately 12 employees have been hired to work across sales, management, production, and manufacturing operations, with plans and space for growth.
